Tim David came into bat in the 13th over, with RCB struggling at 102/5. The former MI superstar took his time initially, trying to take the game deep as Delhi bowlers ran riot. Even as the Australian lost wickets at the other end, he kept his cool waiting for his moment to arrive.
Come the 18th over, David decided to target DC skipper Axar Patel. The RCB death overs specialist smashed the first ball of the over for a six, following it up with another boundary and six. David took 17 off the over, before tonking Mukesh Kumar for 19 in the final over. He eventually finished with 37 off 20 balls, with two boundaries and four sixes. David’s cameo ensured that RCB had a total to try and defend on a tacky wicket at the Chinnaswamy stadium. Watch his stunning strikes here:
